The property grounds and staff were fantastic. Views of the ocean were great. Food (especially dine in) was not good except the breakfast which was very good. My wife ordered a margarita at the outdoor bar area and it tasted pre-mixed and was not good

If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would! This is by far the best hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Every single member of the staff went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. Nothing was ever too much trouble—they were always smiling, kind, and happy to help with anything we needed. The restaurant staff were exceptional, providing outstanding service and making every meal a wonderful experience. The housekeeping team were incredible, keeping our room spotless every day and making sure we had fresh towels, toiletries, toothbrushes, combs, and everything else we could possibly need. The hotel itself is absolutely beautiful, but it’s the amazing people who truly make this place unforgettable. Their genuine care, attention to detail, and outstanding hospitality made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. We can’t recommend this hotel highly enough. It has set a new standard for excellence, and we would happily return again and again. Thank you to the entire team for making our stay so special!

Outstanding, very hard to fault. Beautiful setting, attentive staff. Delicious food. Lovely swimming pool and beach. Only thing for me is that it is very expensively priced. Stayed in comparable places around the world where you get all inclusive for that price, whereas we had to pay on top. But if you are happy with the price, then the resort is top class.
